retrieving file
I did a really big misktake, I erased a directory by mistake (I think) and guess what, this is the database directory. No valid backup since Nov 06. The database is still open and I have the process number and inode number, is there a way I can recover the file with the inode?
Thanks,
thanks,

Re: retrieving file
I am not sure if it can be retrieved from OS side. Database team may have a some idea.

Re: retrieving file
I guess you think the entire database has been read and stored in memory. Not so. Only open files will still be in the system and each will have to be rewritten to save them. All the other unopened files are lost.
And I guess you'll have to go back to Nov 06 to get a backup tape to restore from, for everything in between is lost.
Hope you keep your job. This is basic.

Re: retrieving file
The time has come to pay up!
Don't go cheap. Hire the best service you can, at any prices, to help you with this.
And, uh,... freeze all activity, do not reboot. But you realized that surely.
Good luck!
Hein.

Re: retrieving file
"There are only two types of system administrators: those that have lost data and those that are going to"
Whether you are running a PC with 10GB of files or a server with 500TB of data, the problem is the same.
